It's a reflective wrap on the whole truck. It's in for hubs. Who'd a thought 46s with almost no offset and 2" spacers would be hard on bolt on hubs!

Hmm, since it's a Dodge, I honestly figured it'd be in for a trans.

Got my knuckles drilled out for the inserts, pass side bearings cleaned and re packed and reinstalled, brake line installed, driver side bearings cleaned but not re packed (ran out of time) and just ordered a stock waggy pitman arm since the unknown arm I have currently refuses to let a drill bit go thru it! I'm ok with it tho cause the waggy arm is beefier anyway. Tomorrow I'll finish packing and reinstalling the driver side and if time allows hopefully get the front brake lines buttoned up.

It moved under its own power the other day!! About 10 feet in reverse to get it out of the way so I could work on the murano but hey it's a start. I was like a little kid sitting in there all big and proud and moved about 3 feet and came to an abrupt halt.... Seems I forgot that I didn't have a tie rod so it quickly became pigeon toed. I straighten em back out and moved a little more about 3 times lol!
